Robust development in the industries had lead to th e fast development of the robots and sensors. Mobile robot is able to replace human powe r for many things due to its low cost and high accuracy. Types of navigation of the mobile robot h ad been in the research for past decades, the simplest and straight forward method of mobile robo t navigation will be line following. Line following basically allows the robot to move along the predefined line. This paper is proposing a novel method of line following for more functions f or mobile robot. 12 patterns have been defined to perform different functions. POB-Bot has been us ed to recognize these patterns using its POB- Eye. The result shows that the accuracy of the POB- Eye is promisingly high for simple pattern.
